Summer Exams (Updated)
Summer term anonymous IDs are available in the Virtual Community. Remember that you must “sign” the Exam Policies and Procedures Verification to retrieve your ID each term. The Summer term version of Exam4 is also now available through www.exam4.com. The deadline for submitting a practice exam (to be eligible for technical support for Summer exams) is 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 26.
The deadline has passed for students who need to defer an exam. If you did not submit a Deferral form and need to, please speak to Theresa Gallo as soon as possible. Students seeking accommodations for exams must submit the appropriate documentation to Prof. Coleman no later than the last day of classes.
Graduation Audit (Updated)
Students expected to graduate in the next year will be receiving audit reports from OSA this week via their Drexel email, with return receipt requested. If we do not receive a return receipt within one week, we will mail the report to the address we have on file for you. We encourage you to make an appointment with Prof. Coleman to review your graduation progress after receipt of this report. You can do so by emailing Nora Olsewski, OSA’s administrative assistant, at lawosa@drexel.edu.
